Marcia and Anne:

I may have missed it, but I haven't seen info on how the printer was set 
up originally?  Did you set it up to use CUPS, Post Script or both in 
LM8.2?  When I see HP, I immediately think "Post Script", but I'm not 
that familiar with them in Linux...in Windows they can be a real PITA.

When I set up my Epson 740 USB, I set it up in CUPS as Printer 
(printer0) and in Post Script as Printer1.  Now, the only problems I 
have printing from the net or email is when someone includes emoticons 
....  with those, I have to select all, copy and paste into OO, remove 
the emoticon(s) and then print.

HTH,
Erik
